King County Proposition 1 would extend the Veterans, Seniors, and Human Services Levy. The levy provides funding for public programs in areas such as employment, behavioral health treatment, and housing, and helps connect those resources to seniors, veterans, service members, and military families who need them.
First passed in 2006, the original levy only addressed the needs of our community members who have served in the armed forces; however, in 2017, voters approved an updated levy to include our senior neighbors. In the last five years, the levy has helped reduce veteran homelessness by 40 percent, funded 39 senior centers across King County, built more than 200 units of affordable housing for veterans and their families, and launched a 24-hour, multilingual domestic violence hotline. If approved this year, the levy would ensure continued funding for the essential services it has already been delivering and allow the county to respond to the ongoing effects of the pandemic and economic downturn.
We all benefit when our local government cares for our neighbors. The Veterans, Seniors, and Human Services levy is a crucial part of our shared security net. Vote "Approved" on King County Proposition 1.

There are two other candidates in this race. David Baker, a local business owner, is running for re-election for Position 5 on the Kenmore City Council. He has served as a council member since 2003, and has also held the position of mayor during his 20-year tenure. Additionally, Baker sits on a number of local and regional committees, most notably the Sound Transit Board.
Baker is known for his support of transportation and transit development. He is recognized for his efforts in organizing and supporting enhancements to the bus rapid transport system along the 522 Route corridor in Kenmore. While Baker supports the idea of housing near transit sites, he has sometimes taken a more cautious approach when it comes to building more housing. It is crucial to build homes across the city, including increasing density, in order to ensure every resident can afford a roof over their head. Baker is a moderate voice on the council with a great deal of institutional knowledge about Kenmore.
Despite his previous run for council in 2013, where he aimed to address traffic congestion and business development, Mark Prince's current campaign for Position 5 lacks specific policies. A manufacturing supervisor and packing engineer, Prince brings limited community experience to the table and does not seem to be running a competitive campaign. His voter's pamphlet statement explicitly opposes increasing density, which is an essential step toward improving housing affordability in Kenmore. Mark Prince is not a progressive choice in this race.

There are two progressive candidates running for Kenmore City Council, Position 7: Nathan Loutsis and incumbent Corina Pfeil. Both of them would bring unique perspectives and experiences to the council. Read the full recommendations below to find the candidate who best matches your values and priorities for Kenmore.
Corina Pfeil is running for re-election to Kenmore City Council, Position 7. Pfeil was first elected to the council in 2019, and sits on the National League of Cities Human Development Committee and Eastside Pride PNW.
During her time on the council, Pfeil has consistently championed the rights of tenants. Being the sole renter among the council members, Pfeil possesses a deep understanding of the challenges faced by this expanding demographic amidst escalating homeownership costs. In March 2022, Pfeil voted in favor of various regulations aimed at safeguarding tenants' rights.
If re-elected, Pfeil's commitment remains focused on reducing and eliminating disparities affecting the LGBTQ+ community, seniors, and people with disabilities, as well as promoting diversity, equity, belonging, and inclusion practices. Pfeil strives to bridge opportunity gaps and ensure equal treatment for all individuals and groups within the community. However, she has only received the endorsement of one of her colleagues, which raises questions about her ability to work together to pass legislation. Pfeil is a good choice for voters looking for an unapologetic progressive voice on the council.

Nathan MacDonald is the conservative candidate running for Kenmore City Council, Position 7. If elected, MacDonald would oppose efforts to provide more housing for middle-income residents. He called commonsense updates that allow more affordable options like duplexes and triplexes "radical changes." Given the urgent need to improve housing affordability in Kenmore, ManDonald's positions make it clear he's not a progressive choice in this race.
